Responsible supply chains in Asia

The Responsible Supply Chains in Asia programme aims to further sustainable and inclusive economic, social and environmental progress by integrating responsible business practices into the operations of multinational companies and their supply chains. Active in selected industrial sectors in six Asian countries, it takes a multifaceted approach with the aim of promoting respect for human rights, and labour and environmental standards. The Responsible Supply Chains in Asia programme is co-funded by the EU. For more about the regional programme’s approach and strategy see - Approach and Objectives
